Our classroom was a hive of activity today as we started making robots. Here are a couple that are already completed.
Fancy Friday
Everyone looked splendid on Fancy Friday!
Our KIBO
We are currently doing a robot unit which includes robots in all curricular areas. Along with it, we are figuring out all the interesting things our KIBO robot can do. There’s lots of enthusiasm using this great learning tool!
Summer Carnival
It was a perfect day for our summer carnival–not too hot or too cool. Ask your child about the different types of activities they got to do. Fun, fun!
Some Scenes From Our Week
Here are just a few of the learning moments in our classroom this week.
Using our “cell phones” to have a French conversation…
Using Osmo to solve problems…
Reading to classmates…
And snuggling with a friend.
Duct Tape
Every year, our school participates in Jump Rope for Heart.
This year, Mr Silversides challenged the students to raise $7000, more money than they ever had before. He promised that if they did, he and Mr Paice would allow themselves to be taped to the wall by the students.
The students not only met that goal, the exceeded it! Together, the students from our school raised a total of $7800!!
The students shrieked with delight as the two teachers were taped to the wall.
Painting Flowers
Kids and paint. So much fun.
Superheroes
There were a lot of superheroes in our school this week!

Making Phones
We are getting ready to practice our French sentences on telephones, so of course we had to make our own cell phones. Students chose their own materials to create their phones. And great looking phones they are!
Games Help us Learn
We do a lot of things with technology in our classroom, but sometimes there is nothing like a concrete game to help with learning. Pennies are disappearing, but still oh so useful.
